Second Fellowship Report

I've completed my second two weeks of development. I again spent a
large amount of my time reviewing tickets. In addition, I did some
development work, as well as buildbot improvements.

All told, 42 tickets got some attention that they would not have
received without the sponsored development. The result was 23 closed
tickets and 14 other tickets unblocked for other developers to resume
work on.

Buildbot improvements

Added a pyflakes builder.

Improved lint-like builders to only show new warnings/errors
introduced in the branch, rather than relative to the tip of trunk

Added a form to the build results page to allow switching branches
and forcing builds.

Added an easy way to look at the history of the unsupported
builders.

Removed links to some useless views.

This work is made possible by the sponsorship of individuals and
organizations which have donated to the Twisted project, part of the
Software Freedom Conservancy, a not-for-profit organization that helps
promote, improve, and develop open source software. Thanks!
